Default Dudley big jump

I'm interested to know what you all though of the big jump at Dudley as it was me who built it, and if I ever build another one, I'd like to know what direction to take it in, what improvements can be made, or what you absolutely loved or hated about it.

Just 18 inches too high IMO, and too close to marshalls head height to be very safe, as some cars were jumping towards marshalls heads without even trying. Make it a little lower, and longer and it would be perfect.

The Jump was fine, just too far away for my aging eyes

LOL ok then who put driving and jumping??? Own up now

Im with Mark, was a nice idea, but a longer, flatter, slightly lower jump would of been better. Gave the track a nice range of features though when put with the other stuff
